.. _tutorial-back-archiving:
Back Archiving
--------------
This is an example of a suite that is designed to run only once.
* An old archive system contains data from 1990-01-01 to 1995-07-12.
* This data needs to be copied to a new archive system.
* The data needs to be processed before it is written to the new archive system.
* These data types can be copied independently.
* The data is organised daily in the old archive. The system should copy one day of data at a time.
* Only two tasks can access the old archive system at the same time.
**What to do**
1. Write the :term:`suite definition`
2. Design it so new data types can be easily added with their own periods
